  2. They've definitely been on the marching powder
  3. The Zionist leader, Vladimir Jabotinsky, following Herzl’s strategy of securing the patronage of major world powers articulated the Zionist position thus: Zionist colonisation must proceed regardless of the native population. Which means that it can proceed and develop only under the protection of a power that is independent of the native population – behind an iron wall, which the native population cannot breach. That is our Arab policy; not what it should be, but what it actually is, whether we admit it or not. What need we, otherwise, of the Balfour Declaration? Or of the Mandate? Their value to us is that outside Power has undertaken to create in the country such conditions of administration and security that if the native population should desire to hinder our work, they will find it impossible.
  4. Long before George Orwell popularised the expression “war is peace” in his 1949 novel, Zionism understood well that its colonial strategy depended on a deliberate and insistent confusion of the binary terms “war” and “peace”, so that each of them hides behind the other as one and the same strategy: “Peace” will always be the public name of a colonial war, and “war”, once it became necessary and public in the form of invasions, would be articulated as the principal means to achieve the sought after “peace”. Waging war as peace is so central to Zionist and Israeli propaganda that Israel’s 1982 invasion of Lebanon, which killed 20,000 civilians, was termed “Operation Peace for Galilee”. War and peace, therefore, are the same means whose only and ultimate strategic goal is European Jewish colonisation of Palestine and the subjugation and expulsion of Palestine’s native population.
  5. 18 Oct 2024 With a recorded vote of 124 nations in favour, 14 against, the resolution calls for Israel to comply with international law and withdraw its military forces, immediately cease all new settlement activity, evacuate all settlers from occupied land, and dismantle parts of the separation wall it constructed inside the occupied West Bank. The General Assembly further demanded that Israel return land and other “immovable property”, as well as all assets seized since the occupation began in 1967, and all cultural property and assets taken from Palestinians and Palestinian institutions. The resolution also demands Israel allow all Palestinians displaced during the occupation to return to their place of origin and make reparation for the damage caused by its occupation.
  6. The Zionist leaders’ assumption that the Palestinians were bribable, that they could be bought, and that they would accept Jewish domination in exchange for nominal economic benefits They declared as early as 1923 that: Our peace-mongers are trying to persuade us that the Arabs are either fools, whom we can deceive by masking our real aims, or that they are corrupt and can be bribed to abandon to us their claim to priority in Palestine, in return for cultural and economic advantages. I repudiate this conception of the Palestinian Arabs. Culturally they are five hundred years behind us, they have neither our endurance nor our determination; but they are just as good psychologists as we are …. We may tell them whatever we like about the innocence of our aims, watering them down and sweetening them with honeyed words to make them palatable, but they know what we want, as well as we know what they do not want. They feel at least the same instinctive jealous love of Palestine, as the old Aztecs felt for ancient Mexico, and the Sioux for their rolling Prairies.
  7. The IDF was formed from three different proscribed terrorist groups that terrorised the British, Palestinians, and anyone that stood in their way. The three terrorist groups were Irgun, Haganah and Lehi. They committed so many atrocities before 1948. Those Irgun, Haganah, and Lehi terrorists went on to be Prime Ministers and senior Israeli government officials. Then when the US realised its strategic importance in the Middle East, a client state was born - a veneer of democracy, masking an overblown entitlement, along with a homicidal view of Arabs. Toxic combination. However, very lucrative for the military industrial complex, its shareholders, and keeping the Middle East on fire
  8. Its important to differentiate between jews, Israel, and zionism. To conflate them is problematic. Many zionists with their expansionist right wing policies if confronted, immediately play the anti semitic card. Conversley there are gentile and muslims, as you say, that blame jews. Separate entities completely. There is a large Jews Against Zionism movement. The current israeli government have zero intention of two states. Imo one state, and they all get along....fantasy
  9. All the neighbours have said go back to the 1967 land grabs and there will be peace. my answer would be - Israel could call their bluff and see what happens. Nothing to lose. The current Ultra Right Wing government do not want this, they do not want two states, just like the nazis they invade, slaughter, and take the land. Israel needs a new government imo
  10. People are polarised on this issue. People wont shift especially if they have some weird religious affliction. Its sad for Israelis living under Netanyahu, and psychos Smotrich and Gvir - they will suffer revenge attacks for decades, people that have lost parents, children, whole families. Just slaughtered Bottom line is people either support genocide and an occupying apartheid regime or they dont. The danger of endorsing such mass slaughter is it legitimises other states to do the same in the future.
  11. International law says Israel is illegally occupying Palestinian land. The longest illegal occupation in history. Under International law occupied people have the right to defend themselves I hope that question is rhetorical Illegal settlements in the West Bank - settlers burning olive groves, bulldozing houses, shooting children in the head, while the IDF protect them. Yes, very peacefully They always play 'the victim' -its the UN, its the Houthis, its Hamas, Its Save the Children, Its World Foodbank, Its the Palestinians, its Al Jazeera, its Doctors without Borders, Its Christian Aid, its Medecin sans Frontieres, its human shields, .......as they commit genocide with the largest weapons cache per capita in the World
  12. Chelsea fans tell £89m flop to 'stay there' after he's spotted at Arsenal game.....
  13. Israel So if Yemen decided to invade Israel and set up a Yemeni homeland using an annual 3.5bn dollars of hi tech weapons given by US Taxpayers . that would be ok ''because they won the war'' ? That is crazy. So ''might is right''. You can kill and invade because you have the most hi tech weapons ? If the devil fucks and eats Christ it is ok because the Devil won the War ? By who ? The UN ? They have broken more UN Resolutions than every other country in the World all together. By the US, their proxy backers ? by Blinken - his grandfather a Zionist who helped occupy Palestine ? I mentioned Sudan in an early post - no one including you said anything You talk of ''terror''. Israel bombed a Sovereign country Syria, the Iranian Embassy and killed children in total violation of International law. Hezbollah and Houthis have all said ''stop the Genocide in gaza and no rockets will come.'' For that reason, Israel said on NBC they deliberately killed Nasrallah because he wanted peace. Look it up. Israel bombed Tehran and killed Ishmael Hanir - another one who sought peace. Now they are killing who;e families and children in Beirut Last Saturday 42 Countries asked Israel to stop murdering UN Peacemakers --- Its very odd how Evangelical Christians think Israel can do no wrong -especially when the Torah sees them as slaves/subhuman, spits on them in Jerusalem
  14. Yes Phd in political science - its economic land grab mainly and stealing of resources. Yes partly. The Israeli Stern Gang and Irgun were terrorists. Massacred thousands before the Palestinian resistance even rose up. They hung two British Sergeants and booby trapped the bodies. They blew up the King David Hotel killing dozens and tried to blame Palestinians. Then the UK said no more, and the US took over using Israel as a colonial outpost Brief history of Iran. Mossadeq was in charge, Irans 30th Prime Minister a beautiful democratic country. However he decided Irans oil should be for Iran. Fair enough ? The US organised a CIA Coup to overthrow the democratically elected government so they could have the oil. They installed the US friendly Shah. a right bastard with his torture police and death squads to crush any opposition. Then in 1979 there was the Religous Revolution because Iranians were fed up with the unelected Shahs regime. Later there was the Iran v Iraq war that lasted for 10 years. The US sold weapons to both sides, just the right amount so that the war was finely balanced, would go on for as long as possible, with maximum casualties. Fast forward and Hezbollah and Hamas are a direct result of Israeli massacres and land grabs. They didnt exist until Israel invaded. Hamas have been useful to Netanyahu as they have split the Palestinians, he is on record as saying ''We must support Hamas'' Credit to Hezbollah though they only attack military targets. Imagine if every hospital had been destroyed in Israel, every school blown up, 42 650 dead, 102 000 injured and 95% of all buildings destroyed, electricity cut off, water cut off and hardly any food allowed in.....
  15. 'This is our land, we deserve it': Dozens of Israelis planning to cross border and settle in Gaza When asked what should happen to the Palestinians currently living in the territory, one Israeli woman replied: "We should kill them. Every last one of them." By Adam Parsons, Sky News correspondent in Kibbutz Be’eri in Israel Monday 21 October 2024 22:35, UK Image:Reshit says Israel should 'kill every last one' of the Palestinians in Gaza As the sun beats down on us near Kibbutz Be'eri in Israel, Avi looks out towards the place he really wants to live. It's only two miles away and it shimmers in the sunshine. "It would be our privilege," he says, looking at his wife and three small children. Their plan is to move to Gaza. He's not sure when it will be possible, but he's hoping it will be soon, once it is safe to move in. As if on cue, there is a boom as another shell is fired into Gaza from a nearby gun emplacement. Avi is not alone. Around us are dozens and dozens of Israelis who are keen to get into Gaza and claim the land as their own. They have come to a conference on the resettlement of Gaza in Kibbutz Be'eri as a show of strength and determination. Many of them are couples with children. There is a tent where the youngsters are being entertained, a stall handing out drinks and a stage with speeches and music. People are making small talk in the shade of a pagoda. There are lots of guns here, and the atmosphere is rich with a sense of frustration, entitlement and even excitement. Reshit has come with her friends. She is the daughter of an Israeli soldier who spent months in Gaza and is now fighting in Lebanon. She is friendly, open, eloquent and utterly sure of herself. So why would you want to live in Gaza? Image:Israelis waves flags as a conference is held on the resettlement of Gaza "Because it's our homeland," she replies. "It says in the Torah that this is our home, this is our land, and we have every right to live there. "So many soldiers have died in this. We have to keep doing what they started. They died for a reason. They started something. And I think it's our duty for them and for their families to actually keep doing what they started. "They sacrificed themselves for something so we have to sacrifice ourselves for that thing also." What, I ask, about the Palestinians who already live in Gaza? What should happen to them? She doesn't miss a beat. "We should kill them, every last one of them. And if the government won't do that then we should just kick them out. This is our land. And we deserve it." Mass murder is not proposed by the other people we meet, at least not while talking to us, but the idea that the Palestinians should forego their land and be sent to other nations seems commonplace. "Throughout history, countries who lose wars then lose their land," I was told by a man called Boris, who says he is an activist for Likud, the political party of prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Until recently, the idea of sending settlers into Gaza had very few supporters - a fringe proposal with almost no momentum. Now right-wing politicians have jumped behind it with gusto as a growing sign of their determination not simply to beat Hamas, but to change the region. Image:Smoke rises from Gaza as seen from southern Israel. Pic: Reuters And so, along with the would-be settlers, there are politicians here, lending their weight. Itamar Ben-Gvir, the outspoken minister of national security, turns up to lend his support, agreeing that Palestinians should be removed from Gaza. Another VIP visitor is Ariel Kallner, an MP for Likud, who tells me that he is here to show his support for the settlers' plans. He insists that "total victory" in the war can only be achieved when settlers have set up a town in northern Gaza. In the distance, smoke rises over Gaza. In a large tent to the side, a loudspeaker bursts into life. Daniella Weiss takes to the stage to applause. Now a sprightly 79 years old, she has spent half a century encouraging settlers to set up communities in the West Bank. She claims to have established more than 330 settlements and now, her focus is on Gaza. "You know, it wasn't easy. We have accumulated a lot of experience about how to do it politically, how to work with the politicians, how to work with the public, and how to encourage the pioneers to be able to settle in a place that is their land, but is also a difficult place to live in," she says. "We can teach them how to cope." Image:Sky's Adam Parsons speaks with Daniella Weiss There is another commotion, this time in the neighbouring field. Counter-demonstrators have turned up and a line of police officers is separating them from the settlers. They're chanting their opposition and waving banners. Mickal Frucktman bristles with anger. She says she was shocked to see Likud politicians at the event because "I think that means the government supports this idea". "What they want to do is illegal and it's going to cause incredible problems. It's going to totally ruin Israel morally, if there's any moral shred left. And there are still 101 hostages being held." She looks at the settlers; they look back. It's hard to imagine any common ground between these two camps, any fellow feeling. And from somewhere near, there is a boom as another shell is launched into Gaza
  16.
